It's been a familiar question in recent years and it has resurfaced yet again: Will the real Dallas Cowboys please stand up? The Cowboys surprised many with their 24-17 win against the Giants in Week 1, but they followed it with a debacle in Seattle. Dallas' early blunders on special teams proved devastating as Seattle controlled the line of scrimmage and pulled away in the second half in a dominant 27-7 win.

Two games and two comeback victories for Michael Vick. But Sunday's win over the Baltimore Ravens was substantially more impressive after the near debacle against the Cleveland Browns in Week 1, notes Phil Sheridan of the Philadelphia Inquirer.
